Gates Of The Fallen
The shield-wall shatters on the frost-bitten ground The ravens are circling,
no mercy is found My breath is now fading,
the cold takes my chest But I die with my axe and
I die with the best!
The arrows have fallen,
the battle is done We bled for the glory,
we fought for the sun!
Through the mist of the fallen,
the winged riders descend A melody calls me,
the beginning and end!
She lifts up my spirit,
away from the pyre To the halls of the All-Father,
baptized in fire!
Welcome to the golden gates,
where the immortal drink!
We march to the final war,
pushed right to the brink!
Valhalla!
The mead flows deep for the brave and the bold!
Valhalla! Until the sky cracks and the new age unfolds!
When the wolf swallows the sun and the great serpent rises...
We’ll stand at the gates of Valhalla!
The Fimbul-winter has bled into spring But the sky turns to ash
on the raven’s dark wing!
The Midgard serpent uncoils from the deep While Fen-reer breaks chains and
the heavens will weep!
We sharpen our swords for the twilight of gods Defying the Norns
and their merciless odds!
The Bifrost is trembling,
the bridge starts to crack There is no retreat and there’s no
turning back! We raise up our horns to the storm in the
sky For the glory of Odin,
we fight and we die!
Welcome to the golden gates,
where the immortal drink!
We march to the final war,
pushed right to the brink!
Valhalla!
The mead flows deep for the brave and the bold!
Valhalla! Until the sky cracks and the new age unfolds!
When the wolf swallows the sun and the great serpent rises...
We’ll stand at the gates of Valhalla!
The Bifrost is shattering
under our feet!
The ashes of Midgard are bitter and sweet!
Fenrir is howling, the heavens are torn!
From the blood of the fallen,
a new world is born!
Thor strikes the serpent!
Let the venom fly!
We are the Eye-n-her-yar,
we never will die!
Welcome to the golden gates,
where the immortal drink!
We march to the final war,
pushed right to the brink!
Valhalla!
The mead flows deep for the brave and the bold!
Valhalla! Until the sky cracks and the new age unfolds!
When the wolf swallows the sun and the great serpent rises...
We’ll stand at the gates of Valhalla!
In the halls of the slain...
We will battle again...
Until the world ends.
